#255999 - 07/11/14 03:52 AM [User Showcase] I'd be A Fool
Registered: 05/23/10 Posts: 1718 Loc: New Zealand RichMac Expert Registered: 05/23/10 Posts: 1718 Loc: New Zealand	Hi. This song was written by Denny G who kindly allowed me to cover it. It has a sort of 1940's style that I like a lot. Any comments much appreciated. Cheers. https://soundcloud.com/tuigorge/id-be-a-fool RD - Country even 8 Bass - Midi from Zydeco3 style plus my Pedulla 5 string Accordion - RT 1287 Tex Mex Nothing else. I’d Be A Fool - Denny G I’d be a Fool to think that you were sor-ry Be a Fool to hope you were still there I’d be a Fool to think that you still loved me Be a Fool to think that you still care. Long a-go our hearts were still united Happy times when we still loved each an-other Memo-ries that make me feel so hap-py How I wish you were still here by my side I’d be a Fool to think that you were sor-ry Be a Fool to hope you were still there I’d be a Fool to think that you still loved me Be a Fool to think that you still care. Don’t you think that maybe you still love me Don’t you wish I was still hanging round The good times are not just the memories Good times can come back we can love a-gain I’d Be a Fool to think that you were sorry Be a Fool to hope you were still there I’d be a Fool to think that you still loved me Be a Fool to think that you still care. I’d Be a Fool to think that you still care. I’m a Fool cause I think you still care. Edited by RichMac (07/11/14 03:53 AM) _________________________ https://soundcloud.com/tuigorge

The drums need to be louder during the verse... nice job on the bass... floyd _________________________ 150+ Songs produced using BIAB RealTracks And 50 more... and some more...

And this one is a great example. Nice use of the TexMex accordion also! Enjoyed it. J/B _________________________ Featured Song J&B Soundcloud J&B YouTube J&B Website

Good call. Cheers. Amazing Guenter but now that you mention it i can hear the alps in there. Cheers. Thanks Janice and Bud. That texmex RT certainly fills in the gaps. Cheers. Thanks Greg. It sort of reminded me of the boozy party songs I'd hear from the next room as a child. Cheers. Thanks Mario. Delighted to get that toe moving.

Have been trying to limit the RT's (which are so easy to apply) to what is really needed. Cheers. Thanks Dani. Glad you enjoyed the texmex accordian. It's one of my favorites. Enjoy your comments a lot. Cheers. _________________________ https://soundcloud.com/tuigorge

Your use of just three instruments, the accordion as the sole instrument playing chords . Really draws attention to the lyrics. And the modulation in the last verse - a very creative touch. You possess a very creative spirit. much enjoyed!

Upgrading to Band-in-a-Box® 2020 is Easy!

Did you know... anyone who has owned a previous version of Band-in-a-Box® is entitle to upgrade pricing - you do not need to have your old version installed!

Maybe you used to own the Windows version, but you now have a Mac... that's not a problem either!
(or if you owned the Mac version, and now you have a Windows computer)

In both cases, you would purchase from the "Upgrade from 2018 or earlier or crossgrade" row here for a new Mac version, or here if you want the newest Windows version. Just need to upgrade your 2019 version? Use the "Upgrade from 2019/2020" row.

When you purchase your upgrade from either of these rows, you will receive a complete installation - just follow the steps of the setup, and your Band-in-a-Box® will be ready to use!

PG Music Inc. shopping cart accounts were not required to purchase from our website prior to October 29, 2014. With that in mind, you may have to create an account in order to upgrade - that's OK! You'll still be entitled to upgrade pricing.
